“When you realize that the ego is making you miserable you don't identify with it. You identify with your soul's humility and the ego dissolves.” SoulRealizingHumilityBuddhismEgoMiserableYour Soul Author:Frederick Lenz
“Humility consists of knowing that in this world the whole soul, not only what we term the ego in its totality, but also the supernatural part of the soul, which is God present in it, is subject to time and to the vicissitudes of change. There must be absolutely acceptance of the possibility that everything material in us should be destroyed. But we must simultaneously accept and repudiate the possibility that the supernatural part of the soul should disappear.” WorldShouldSoulWholeTermAcceptingKnowingSubjectsPossibilityThis WorldAcceptanceHumilityMaterialsEgoDisappearDestroyedTotalityVicissitudes Author:Simone Weil
“Life is sacred. Life is art. Life is sacred art. The art of sacred living means being a holy actor, acting from the soul rather than the ego. The soul is out of space and time and hence always available, an ever-present potential of our being. It is up to each of us to celebrate and to actualize our being and to turn each meal, conversation, outfit, letter, and so on, into art. Every mundane activity is an opportunity for full authentic self-expression. The soul is our artistic self, our capacity for transforming every dimension of our lives into art and theater.” MeanArtSoulSelfLife IsTurnsActorsOpportunitySpaceActingOur LivesExpressionHolyActivityConversationEgoCapacityLettersTheaterSacredAvailableCelebrateArtisticMealsDimensionsTime And SpaceTransformingMundaneSelf ExpressionAuthentic SelfArt LifeSacred Art Author:Gabrielle Roth
